4564 Rebellious



The atmosphere fell into an unprecedented silence.

After a long while, Chu Zhi forced a smile on her face and asked, "Master, where are you going?"

Fengtian Patriarch noticed the expression on her young face, and a hint of pity appeared in his eyes.

If it was possible, why would he want to leave this child?

This silly disciple of his was so innocent and pure. If he was no longer around, who would protect her?

She would definitely be deceived, right?

In the long years, the old and the young had already depended on each other and became an unbreakable bond.

However, in the next moment, the heartache in the eyes of the Fengtian Patriarch was replaced by determination.

He turned his head and no longer looked at Chu Zhi. He looked toward the distant battlefield and tried to calm his voice, "I'm going to a place where I should be."

Chu Zhi fell silent once again. She knew that he had to go and make up for his regrets.

Her Master did not participate in the last Great Catastrophe War, and the entire universe was covered in corpses. Although Fengtian Patriarch rarely spoke about this, Chu Zhi knew that her Master had always been brooding over the fact that he had not helped the universe.

And now, the Great Catastrophe War had broken out once more. It was time for her Master to complete his mission.

"Okay." Chu Zhi's face squeezed out a brilliant smile, and her eyes turned into crescent moons.

"Master, the sooner you leave, the sooner you return. I'm still waiting for you to accompany me to continue touring the universe."

"Haha, I hope that the next time I see you, you'll have found someone who's willing to accompany you through the sea of stars and not this old man."

Reaching out to stroke her young hair affectionately, the Fengtian Patriarch heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, this disciple of his was not completely unable to accept his departure, and her emotions were still relatively stable.

With that, he could rest assured.

However, he had forgotten that Chu Zhi had always been a very sensible girl.

"Disciple, I'll be leaving then. The next time I see you, if your cultivation level doesn't improve, I'll punish you."

"I'm off," Fengtian Patriarch said with a smile. Without any hesitation, he left a sensing mark on Chu Zhi's body. Then, he took a step forward and turned into a beam of light, flying into the distance.

With a single jump, he crossed hundreds of millions of miles, crossing countless galaxies and stars. His speed was extremely fast, and in a short moment, he disappeared into the depths of the universe.

A dazed look flashed across her eyes as she watched the departing Fengtian Patriarch.

...

Offworld Battlefield, main camp.

All the Supreme martial artists went into seclusion to recuperate, and the entire Offworld Battlefield was silent.

However, everyone knew that this was just a sign of the coming storm.

What about the great hall of Cosmos God?

Cosmos God sat on the main seat and massaged his glabella. He had not taken a break for the past few days as he continued to refine Supreme treasures and divine medicines. He hoped that he would be able to give these Supremes of the Divine Power Universe a helping hand.

"Master, these are the tea leaves from the Jilong Mountain in the Bright Sun Star Field. I picked them some time ago. They can help you rest in peace. Please try them."

Lan Su carried a ceramic glazed teacup with both hands and walked over respectfully.

A hint of tea fragrance mixed with steam rose from the teacup.

However, what was surprising was that after the hot air rose, it did not dissipate, but turned into the appearance of a small Qilin.

"Eh? The Nine Gods Tea Tree is guarded by the Tianji clan at Jilong Mountain. You're really kind to be able to get these tea leaves from them."

Cosmos God smiled and took a sip of tea from the teacup. He was slightly pleased.

"Master's words are too serious, this is all disciple's duty." Lan Su replied with a smile.

After drinking a mouthful of tea, Cosmos God felt his mood improve slightly.

Seeing this, Lan Su had an idea and asked, "Master, how confident do you think we are in winning this battle?"

"I'm afraid it's not even 30 percent," Cosmos God replied after some thought.

"Is that so?" Lan Su nodded as a thoughtful look flashed across his eyes. He then used a probing tone and said softly, "Master, you've already been standing guard here for 100,000 chaos cycles. If... I mean, if the Divine Power Universe is really broken, do you still want to die with it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere suddenly became strangely quiet.

Cosmos God put down his teacup, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared. He looked at Lan Su expressionlessly and slowly said, "What do you mean by that?"

Lan Su's heart trembled when he heard this.

"Master, I..."

He opened his mouth a few times as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he seemed to have thought of something. He gritted his teeth and raised his head to look at Cosmos God. He said in a deep voice, "Master, other than Void God, Snake God isn't weak in the Void Universe, and they seem to have the Devourers' support. If I may be so bold as to say this, the Divine Power Universe doesn't have much chance of survival."

"Instead of being buried with the Divine Power Universe, Master, you might as well discuss with Void God and see if you can rule the Divine Power Universe by drawing stars. With your strength, as long as you talk with Void God, I'm sure he won't be brainless. He'll definitely be happy to form an alliance with you..."

"Bastard!!!" Without waiting for Lan Su to finish his sentence, Cosmos God had already sent out a palm and slapped Lan Su's face ruthlessly.

"Lan Su! Are you asking me to give up the entire universe for the sake of my own life and death, regardless of the billions of lives in it?"

Bang!

The slap sent Lan Su flying, and a huge pit appeared on the ground.

"This disciple..."

Lan Su turned over and stood up. He quickly knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing. His forehead shook the floor until it made a muffled sound. "This disciple doesn't dare!"

Upon hearing this, the expression of Cosmos God turned extremely ugly. He berated sternly, "Get out of here! If Master hears your treasonous words again, don't blame Master for ending your life without considering the master-disciple relationship!"

He did not notice that when Lan Su, who had buried his face deep in the ground, heard this, a hint of resentment appeared on his face.

"...This disciple knows his mistake!"

Lan Su squeezed out these words from between his teeth.

"Why aren't you getting lost?" Cosmos God shouted out once more.

"... Yes!" Lan Su stood up and left respectfully.

However, no one noticed that his gaze had stopped on the teacup beside Cosmos God for an instant. A look of pain and pleasure appeared on his face.

"Master, I don't want to be buried with the Divine Power Universe. Since you're so stubborn and can't tell right from wrong, then don't blame me for taking the initiative."

Lan Su muttered to himself and left Cosmos God Great Hall with large strides.

Within the great hall, only Cosmos God was left.

He kept breathing in and out to adjust his emotions, but his face was still ashen, and his anger had not subsided.

Other than anger, he felt even more heartache.

He had never thought that the disciple he had brought up would say such treacherous words.
